This little boy, whose name is Shane Bernier, has cancer: acute lymphocytic leukemia, to be exact. I was sent an email explaining his struggle and that he has one simple wish: to make it into the Guiness Book of World Records by becoming the first person to ever receive 3.5 million Birthday Cards. Shane's 8th birthday is on May 30 of this year...let's all send him a card and help his wish come true. You can write to Shane at:
Shane Bernier
P.O. Box 484
Lancaster, Ontario
Canada
K0C 1N0
Also: check out his websites at www.shaneswish.com and www.shanebernier.ca - where there are links to media articles, YouTube interviews, Facebook Group pages and more. You can even send an electronic birthday card, and 2 of these are posted on the second website (above).
Tell everyone you know about Shane: community groups, your church family, youth groups, when you are at the hairdresser, etc., etc. - the more cards that are sent, the closer this little guy will be to having his simple wish come true.
